Ultrafast Optics: Challenges and Solutions

Presented by: Dr. Stefan Schwarz, Solutions Engineer

Location: Hall B3 Stand B3.361

Ultrafast lasers are the forefront of emerging technology, pushing the barriers in industrial applications and fundamental scientific discovery. Unwanted effects, such as dispersion and laser damage, could critically affect the quality of the beam and the performance of the system. Here, we model the laser induced damage on optical coating using a two-temperature model. Furthermore, we discuss the different strategies used in ultrafast opticas manufacturing to control dispersion effects.

What MTF curves can and cannot tell you

Presented by: Dr. Boris Lange, Imaging Manager Europe

Location: Hall B2 Stand B2.356

Due to innovative sensor technology, the available camera and lens portfolio diversifies more and more, making the choice of the optimum hardware components a non-trivial task. This presentation will help vision system designers find the optics with the best cost-to-performance ratio when creating an imaging system. Modulation Transfer Functions (MTF) of imaging lenses are a great tool when comparing the performance of different lenses but there are certain pitfalls one should avoid looking at these information-dense data sets.
